    Using coco for full or at least semi organic automated grow

    Yeah I ended up putting together a test using a blend of peat + coco, with castings, a little compost, some perlite and hydroton and some dry amendments. Running this side by side with my dtw coco. Going well so far although only on day 5 of bloom, only thing I have noticed so far is that the...

    Using coco for full or at least semi organic automated grow

    Very interesting results, and just the kind of feedback I was looking for thank you. Just like you I assumed coco must be better because of the results I have been getting running it as a hydro medium. BUT It makes sense that the low CEC thats great when running synthetics and helps keep...

    Using coco for full or at least semi organic automated grow

    Yeah drain to waste coco with salts is what I run right now, I am very happy with the results I have been getting from it, I was just looking to simplify the process at some of the places that are tough for me to get to more than once a week, and have had some issues with clients mixing...

    Using coco for full or at least semi organic automated grow

    Hey guys I would like to hear from some folks running coco in organics, I have been running coco dtw with salts the past couple years, although the past few grows I have been adding in some organic amendments, ewc etc to my base coco perlite mix, and brewing and feeding teas roughly once a week...

    Which is more important later in flower - correct VPD or low RH?

    Yeah I have been trying to balance some of these factors myself, recently set up a 4x8 in some of my veg space to hunt some genetics in and ran vpd around 1.0 through the first 5 weeks of flower, lights on temps and humidity were 81-82f and 70-73% rh. Was not sure what to expect as its been a...

    Good quality (large) Carbon Filters for a reasonable price, Pelletized vs granular

    you want to go with something that uses pelletized carbon and at least 2.5" bed depth. I have found that the odor scrubbing ability and lifespan are directly proportional to the amount (weight) of carbon used in the filter. So many companies filters nowdays especially seem to really skimp on the...

    Good quality (large) Carbon Filters for a reasonable price, Pelletized vs granular

    Its night and day in my experience, a good quality filter using pelletized carbon at a 2.5 inch or better bed depth will last for years. The filters I am looking to replace are like 7 years old, used indoors for the first year, used just during drying+trimming for an outdoor for 3 years, stored...

    Good quality (large) Carbon Filters for a reasonable price, Pelletized vs granular

    yeah thats something I would be interested in testing, although I have so many projects right now that need my attention so repacking my existing filters with proven carbon is about the extent of the time I could throw at it. I have been thinking about recycling the carbon in my old filters as...

    Good quality (large) Carbon Filters for a reasonable price, Pelletized vs granular

    I was honestly just thinking i would pack it a bit at a time and rock it back and fourth, they weigh 75 & 100 lbs full and I have noticed that they settle pretty well any time I have had to move one. I think the granular carbon they run at thinner bed depths is harder to pack than the 2.6" depth...

    Good quality (large) Carbon Filters for a reasonable price, Pelletized vs granular

    This is pretty much word for word what I heard, will check them out and see if any of my local places can get them and for how much $

    Good quality (large) Carbon Filters for a reasonable price, Pelletized vs granular

    yes I have thought about that, I looked for bulk activated carbon online a little bit but had trouble finding big bags of it at a price that would make it worth it. I think I would need almost 150 lbs to do both filters, might be something I could source locally but have not made any phone calls...

    AC Infinity Cloudray 6" Auto Oscillating Fan

    sounds like you have it pretty well dialed in, what sort of lights are you using in that space? I found that I can run the fan a lot harder and still keep the temperature up around 80-81 in the tent using 4x 315 cmh, have also done some testing using 4x 240w quantum boards in there, fan does not...

    DIY MR COOL MINI SPLIT

    Yeah getting the wiring outside can be a bit of a pain, especially if you have thick brick or block walls to go through, or some other kind of obstruction, like having to fish it through finished walls.

    AC Infinity Cloudray 6" Auto Oscillating Fan

    Good to know that they don't all make the whining noise, I may dive deeper into mine and see if I can pinpoint the issue, but its honestly not a big deal, just something to note. The controllability and built in logging is really great for the price, probably the best option I have seen for a...

    AC Infinity Cloudray 6" Auto Oscillating Fan

    Yeah its a whine from the motor, not airflow noise so its tricky to do anything about. Seems to carry though walls more so than just the regular wind noise I associate with fans. Sound like you have the same whine so its not just my fan. I may try making a wrap for it of some kind and see if...

    AC Infinity Cloudray 6" Auto Oscillating Fan

    I just bought an 8" AC infinity inline fan because I wanted something cheap for a tent, and I liked that the temperature control was included. Honestly I was expecting it to be much higher quality due to all the hype I have heard over ACI's products. The build quality isnt even close to being on...

    DIY MR COOL MINI SPLIT

    I would push the tent against a wall, screw the mounting plate for the indoor unit though the tent into the wall studs and cut a hole in the tent to run the lineset into the wall. you could also run the lineset out one of the duct ports but you will need to have good drop for the condensate...

    Good quality (large) Carbon Filters for a reasonable price, Pelletized vs granular

    looking to replace a couple of my carbon filters, both are the older green top active air filters that use the pelletized carbon and roughly 2.6" bed depth. At the time they had the same specs as the CAN-FILTER but were less money, one of them is the same size/weight as a can 75 and the other...
